What is preconfigured and demonstrated.

The project demonstrates the following configurations:

One target server for Linux. The user will need to configure the actual hostname for this logical server definition, and any SSH credentials such as username, password or key/pem file.

How to use this project.

Download the project to your desktop by clicking on one of the links. The file will be saved as PREPARE_OS_FOR_WEBLOGIC12c.zip

Log into your RapidDeploy instance as mvadmin.

Navigate to Resources -> Projects.

In the top right hand corner click on the Upload Project button.

Select the zip file you downloaded in step 1.

You are guided through a project import wizard. You can normally accept the defaults.

Once the project is imported, there are a couple of things you’ll need to do.

Firstly, you will need to change the server configuration. In order to do that navigate to Resources -> Targets -> Servers and find wls-Server (this is the name we used in our sample project). Edit this server – put correct Hostname then navigate to Transport tab and check if it is possible to connect to your remote Linux server by clicking Test Connection.

Note that Successful connection is mandatory to go further!

Secondly, in the uploaded project, you will need to change the data dictionary properties for your installation. Navigate to Resources -> Projects select the JBOSS_AS_7_DEPLOY_APPLICATION project and on the Orchestration tab, select the Data Dictionary sub-tab. Review and change entries as required, and save the project.

You need to create deployment package for the project . Go to the Packages tab, click Create Package button.

Now you can run a new job to the environment of your choice.

Select the Play button next to the target.

Select the package you want to deploy from the droplist.

Since there is only one package, it is preselected. The latest package will always be preselected by default.

Click on the Yes button in this dialog.

The deployment is started and you are taken to the running jobs panel where you see the tasks executed and job log in real time.Navigate to Project -> Targets Tab.

Verify install:

Navigate to http://[your-ip]/:8080 and from here use the link to access the admin console on port 9990 with the username/password you set in the RapidDeploy Data Dictionary.
